When Evil Feeds

Large black wings
Of mother midnight
Cloak me in their darkness
Keeping me free of God’s holy light
Hidden and waiting
For the hunger to take control
An anger that needs to be fed
That will latch on to your helpless soul
And bleed you till you are dead
Moonbeams boil
To summon the evil from within
To conjuer up this demon
That feeds off your sin
I am a hunter
A predator of the night
That seeks out the pathetic
And fills them with fright
My heat beats faster
As I take to the sky
Looking for the one
That will become
My next meal
My cravings, my appetite for blood
Leads me to you
Your sins! I can both taste and feel
Yes! You will do just fine
Your soul, your life, your desires
Now, all mine
Fangs of love and life
I bite into your tender flesh
Succulent I feed
As your hatred fills me
And I lust for your death
My sheer ecstasy
Felt in your last breath
Your lifeless body
Empty, drops to the ground
I wipe my lips clean
Of your tainted blood
Your body
Now stipples the midnight landscape
Like dead roses lost in the night
With an inner beauty of evil
That will be revealed at dawn’s early light
